Non-Profit - Smithfield, RI, US
Revive the Roots is a non-profit organization based out of Smithfield, RI. Our mission is to create ecologically regenerative and dynamic social spaces through the education and practice of permaculture.By working with students and faculty at local schools, we have planted edible forest gardens and annual vegetable gardens throughout northern Rhode Island. At our public grounds, Mowry Gardens, we provide space for people to grow their own food, explore trails along the Woonasquatucket river, and connect with their family and friends. We also host a series of events and workshops to bring together and educate the public about permaculture and sustainable practices. Overall, Revive the Roots is meant to serve as an educational and recreational hub in Smithfield, and also as an example for the rest of Rhode Island to nurture both community and local ecology.We see a direct connection between community resilience and ecological stability and aim to strengthen that connection by promoting and exemplifying our core goals and values:Ecological Healing: Humans are not separate from nature, and ecosystems deserve an enhanced degree of stewardship. The health of our species and the overall health of Earth's biosphere are interdependent and must be treated as such.Enriching Community: A strong sense of community is the most essential element in creating a self-reliant and thriving locale. Our progression and overall health as a community depends greatly on our willingness to cooperate with, share with, and support one another.Securing Sustenance: Our duty to our future is to fortify the ability of our local communities to generate all of their own necessities sustainably. This will eliminate our dependence on the goods and services of other inhumane and unsustainable systems.
